Snaga are a solo project from Idaho that plays a raw form of black metal and this is a review of his self released 2026 ep "...In The Grey Apparel of Ghosts".
A very distorted sound starts off the ep before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the guitar riffing also mixes in a small amount of melody.
A lot of the music also shows an old school influence while electronic sounds are also added into the background briefly. Most of the recording sticks to either a fast or mid tempo direction and the closing track is done in more of a slower style as well as being very long and epic in length and adds in a brief use of solos and leads.
Snaga plays a style of black metal t hat is very raw and traditional sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover the writings of Robert E. Howard, misanthropy and horror themes.
In my opinion Snaga are a very great sounding raw black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "...On The Grey Apparel Of Ghosts". 8 out of 10.
